One man versus a giant corporation; little David's windshield wiper invention takes on the Detroit auto industry Goliath in this week's film, A Flash of Genius.  Amanda and Wade discuss why men like business movies, how the irrepressibly avuncular Greg Kinnear did a great job of staying true to the real person he was portraying, and there's a fun scene about an Office-style sitdramedy concerning land rights on the moon. Enjoy! Credits: https://www.instagram.com/dontworrybmovies/ Logo – John Capezzuto https://www.creativecap.net/ Intro and Outro Music – Andrew Wolfe of Darling Overdrive ht ..read more

Do you truly know your friends and loved ones? Do you actually know... yourself? These are questions a group of friends face at a dinner party during a comet flyby in the amazing film Coherence brought to the podcast by our friend Cassie Skamarock. We discuss Cassie's deep dive into the making of this film, the director's use of a loose script and improvisation, how a certain dark choice elevated the movie from cool to can't-stop-thinking-about-it, and much more.  Pour yourself a glass of wine (ketamine optional), light a candle and enjoy... if you dare.  Credits: https://www.instagr ..read more

This week is all about revisiting childhood trauma as we cover a movie that Wade could never finish. Even to this day! A radio show begs for names for a transplanted beach and mysterious old lady warns us against interdimensional portals and more!    Credits: Don’t Worry B Movies https://www.instagram.com/dontworrybmovies/ Logo – John Capezzuto https://www.creativecap.net/ Intro and Outro Music – Andrew Wolfe of Darling Overdrive https://www.instagram.com/darlingoverdrive/?hl=en   Additional Music (FMA – CC BY): Jesse Spillane - Funk Quest https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Jess ..read more

Thanks to this week's movie, "Einstein and Eddington", Wade and Amanda have decided to put aside their pretend differences and come together in a glorious show of podcastular cooperation. True, they've always been allies, but the gestures was no less heartfelt.  They talk about how two scientists on opposite sides of a war decided to do just that, forever changing our understanding of physics and the universe.  Also in the mix are some fun Einstein facts (perhaps some mortuary robbing), and even an apperance by Smeagle, the 10th doctor, Queen Liz, and a certain other ring-bearer.

This week Wade and Amanda are joined by their good friend Greg Counts to discuss this 80s film about a smart kid making a silly decision. Perhaps…his mother should have insisted on the gonad lasers. But then we wouldn’t have a movie! Or a wacky sequel featuring Nic Cage and plutonium fueled madness!    Credits: Don’t Worry B Movies https://www.instagram.com/dontworrybmovies/ Logo – John Capezzuto https://www.creativecap.net/ Intro and Outro Music – Andrew Wolfe of Darling Overdrive https://www.instagram.com/darlingoverdrive/?hl=en   Additional Music (FMA – CC BY): Aldous Ichnite ..read more

Monsters! Ah! Aliens! Double ah! But Monsters vs. Aliens? So many ah's! Amanda and Wade discuss the nice and easy, feel-good charms of this Reece Witherspoon animated film, including, but not limited to, Amanda's peculiar form of face blindness, Seth Rogan's affability, Dreamworks' animated face skills, and the mating habits of the praying mantis. True, a quick wikipedia search will show that Wade is mistaken about mantises.  Also, as a bonus game, try to count the number of times the term "gaslighting" is used. It's the word of the day!  Credits: https://www.instagram.com/dontworryb ..read more

Wade and Amanda have an important question….if your best friend turned into a demon that needed to feed on boys to stay alive, would you feed them or would you kill them?   Deep philosophical questions like this and more abound in this week’s episode!   Credits: Don’t Worry B Movies https://www.instagram.com/dontworrybmovies/ Logo – John Capezzuto https://www.creativecap.net/ Intro and Outro Music – Andrew Wolfe of Darling Overdrive https://www.instagram.com/darlingoverdrive/?hl=en   Additional Music (FMA – CC BY): Unheard Music Concepts - Unknown Dreamstate https://freemusicarc ..read more

The whims of seas and skies are fickle and unfathomable, but this week Amanda and Wade are going to try and fathom them anyway in this discussion about the Criterion classic, Local Hero. The two discuss the mixture of comedy and philosophical depth that this movie manages to weave together, the hilarious - if misguided - ministrations of the film's insult psychologist, and the complex, melancholic joys of travel.  Plus, there's some murderous mermaids! How fun. Push play and enjoy! Credits: https://www.instagram.com/dontworrybmovies/ Logo – John Capezzuto https://www.creativecap.net/ Intr ..read more
